Subject: [PATCH net v2 07/14] docs: netdev: rephrase the 'Under review' question
Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2022 22:08:23 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220329050830.2755213-8-kuba@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220329050830.2755213-1-kuba@kernel.org>
The semantics of "Under review" have shifted. Reword the question
about it a bit and focus it on the response time.

Generally speaking, the patches get triaged quickly (in less than
-48h). So be patient. Asking the maintainer for status updates on your
+48h). But be patient, if your patch is active in patchwork (i.e. it's
+listed on the project's patch list) the chances it was missed are close to zero.
+Asking the maintainer for status updates on your
patch is a good way to ensure your patch is ignored or pushed to the
bottom of the priority list.
